Testing shows it works OK too. My mistake not to check
precedence of comma wrt assignment before typing. See
also Ted's empirical proof.

I don't think #defines like this are a good idea in
general, but that's my preference; and I'm happy to admit
being both wrong and trigger happy about Bruce's idea
not working as advertised..

I'll get back to lurking now.
